I feel like my mouth is closed the whole time I say it, like there isn't room for the vowels to come out. It just doesn't feel nice to say it. Tristan is much more open and crisp, but if you don't like that one then keep looking at similar names.

I love the name Tristram! I like the way it looks on paper and the way it sounds, its a fresh break from all the Tristans i see. I would totally use it on a boy but alas i have family members named Tristan....
I say, go for gold!
The Tristan's in my family all have the nn Tristy, which could be used for Tristram too, i suppose? its a cute nn.

Teenberry who is obsessed with names - probably a minority on nameberry who likes popular names
